چکیده

In this paper, we propose an object recognition method for 2D objects using wavelet descriptors. The descriptors are derived from the continuous wavelet transform using the Mexican hat function as mother wavelet. In contrast to the other known methods we apply an angle function to describe object contours extracted as polygons. The contour extraction is based on the object oriented contour extraction method (OCE). The polygon representation is based on the curvature dependent contour approximation (CDCA). The continuous wavelet transform (CWT) is used in order to apply a suitable number of wavelet descriptors (WD), which are qualified to characterize the object shapes. Copyright © 2005 IFAC

Frequency-scale frames and the solution of the Mexican hat problem

We resolve a long-standing question on L completeness of the timescale (or wavelet) system generated by the Mexican hat function, when p ≥ 2. Our main result concerns frequency-scale systems generated by modulation and dilation of a single function. The mixed frame operator (analysis followed by synthesis) is shown to be bijective from L(R) to itself, for 1 ≤ q < ∞, so that the frequency-scale ...

Comparisons of wavelet functions in QRS signal to noise ratio enhancement and detection accuracy

Abstract We compare the capability of wavelet functions used for noise removal in preprocessing step of a QRS detection algorithm in the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal. The QRS signal to noise ratio enhancement and the detection accuracy of each wavelet function are evaluated using three measures: (1) the ratio of the maximum beat amplitude to the minimum beat amplitude (RMM), (2) the mean of a...

Mexican Hat Gravitational Lenses

The mexican hat function is used to model a compensated (in density) gravitational lens. First we discuss the need for compensation. Then we integrate photon orbits to construct wavefronts. One consequence of underdensities is an o -axis caustic. We report the structure of the critical curves and caustics using the thin lens approximation, both for the mexican hat and for a perturbed mexican ha...

A New Approach Based on Wavelet Nero Genetic Network for Automatic Target Recognition with X-band Doppler Radar

In this study, a Mexican Hat Wavelet scalogram neural genetic network approach is proposed for signal classification. The Wavelet Scalogram network uses a Levenberg-Marquardt multilayer feedforward neural network-genetic algorithm hybrid structure, and its input layer constitutes the feature extraction part, whereas the hidden layer and output layer constitute the signal classification part. Fr...

Object Recognition based on Local Steering Kernel and SVM

The proposed method is to recognize objects based on application of Local Steering Kernels (LSK) as Descriptors to the image patches. In order to represent the local properties of the images, patch is to be extracted where the variations occur in an image. To find the interest point, Wavelet based Salient Point detector is used. Local Steering Kernel is then applied to the resultant pixels, in ...
